similar to: [PATCH] virt-cat: Remove some unused Perl module includes.

As described here previously: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2010-March/msg00129.html Here is the three part patch to reimplement virt-win-reg to support exporting and merging Windows Registry entries in the 'regedit' format. Tested by me on a local Windows VM. Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones virt-top is 'top'

The following patches are where I'm currently at with ESX support. I can now import a domain from ESX along with its storage. Note that I'm not yet doing any conversion. In fact, I've never even tested past the import stage (I just had an exit in there). The meat is really in the 4th patch. The rename of MetadataReader->Connection was because the Connection is now really providing

Previously, only the LibVirtXML connection translated network and bridge names in imported metadata. This change moves this functionality in Converter, making it available to LibVirt connections as well. At the same time, the format of the config file is switched to XML. The primary driver for this is that the allowable syntax of a foreign network/bridge name is not known. Rather than create a

This change replaces all direct usage of a Sys::Guestfs object in virt-v2v with a Sys::VirtV2V::GuestfsHandle proxy object. The proxy does 3 things: * Holds handle initialisation code * Adds the ability to explicitly close the handle * Adds the ability to register a callback to be executed before close The cleanup code in Sys::VirtV2V::Config is updated to use the new callback mechanism.

These 2 patches are mostly code motion. They were prompted by an apparent augeas error in BZ 613967 which didn't display useful error message. The error seems to happen in Converter::Linux. GuestOS::RedHat had a handy function which displayed verbose augeas error messages. This function moves into the new module where it can be used by both modules. The second patch is an consequential tidy

With this patchset I have successfully[1] imported a RHEL 5 guest directly from ESX with the following command line: virt-v2v -ic 'esx://yellow.marston/?no_verify=1' -op transfer RHEL5-64 Login details are stored in ~/.netrc Note that this is the only guest I've tested against. I haven't for example, checked that I haven't broken Xen imports. Matt [1] With the exception of

This patch makes Perl strings translatable. The Perl strings end up in the PO files as usual. It does not touch the embedded POD. Internationalizing the Perl strings was pleasantly simple. Just add: use Locale::TextDomain 'libguestfs'; at the top of any *.pl or *.pm file. Then for each string in the file that you want to be translatable you place TWO underscores before it: -

I was attempting one way to solve: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1400332 "RFE: virt-builder should support templates with encrypted filesystems" However this approach doesn't really work because templates containing encrypted partitions cannot be compressed, and therefore the guest template would be a multi-gigabyte download. I better approach will likely be to use

From: "Richard W.M. Jones" <rjones at redhat.com> If the parent process uses a pipe (or any fd, but pipes are a particular problem), then the recovery process would hold open the file descriptor(s) of the pipe, meaning that it could not be fully closed in the parent. Because the recovery process doesn't use exec(2), this wasn't avoidable even using FD_CLOEXEC. Avoid this

These patches combine HVSource and HVTarget into a single Converter. This should make it more obvious where to hack without losing any practical flexibility. GuestOS remains separate. GuestOS is now a misnomer, because it's really only a Linux distro abstraction. It will be useless for Windows, for example. Functions which you'd expect to be different on a non-RH distro should live in

I am writing several webpages using the brew package and R2HTML. I would like to work off one script so I am using nested brew calls. The documentation for brew states that: "NOTE: brew calls can be nested and rely on placing a function named ?.brew.cat? in the environment in which it is passed. Each time brew is called, a check for the existence of this function is made. If it exists,

In preparation for an upcoming patch which adds support for SUSE guest conversions, it makes sense to have an intermediate steps that changes the RedHat.pm converter into a more generic Linux converter. The SUSE changes will then be limited in scope to only what is required for SUSE support. This series of patches accomplishes the following: - Renames RedHat.pm to Linux.pm - Modifies Linux.pm

This implements the structure and most of the functionality of the initial virt-v2v tool. --- perl/lib/Sys/Guestfs/GuestOS.pm | 97 ++++ perl/lib/Sys/Guestfs/GuestOS/RedHat.pm | 506 +++++++++++++++++++++ perl/lib/Sys/Guestfs/HVSource.pm | 132 ++++++ perl/lib/Sys/Guestfs/HVSource/Xen/Linux.pm | 141 ++++++ perl/lib/Sys/Guestfs/HVTarget.pm
